“City-Data”

I first posted about City-Data nearly two years ago. It’s an extraordinary research tool. Type in a name of pretty much any good-sized city in the United States and you’ll get a huge amount of….data about that city. It will be displayed in a variety of forms.

I was prompted to take another look at City-Data based on a post in Google Maps Mania. If anything, it even gives you more data now, including by zip code.

As I noted in my original post, it has so much data it can be confusing to English Language Learners. Because of that, the data resources I share in the post about the lesson plan should be sufficient. However, if you want to do a more thorough analysis of communities, City-Data is the way to go.
